Do I need prior graffiti experience to join the teacher training?

Absolutely! While some experience with spray cans helps, our Takoradi training is designed to take you from 'spray-paint novice' to 'classroom expert'. We break down the technical side of graffiti into manageable steps that you can later teach your students. Our goal is to give you the confidence to lead a creative session regardless of your prior art background. Let's get those creative engines running!

How do you handle safety gear and ventilation?

Safety is our absolute priority. We provide high-quality protective gear, including masks and gloves, and we use low-pressure spray paint that is easier to control. During the training, we'll teach you the specific safety protocols you need to implement in a school or community setting, ensuring that your future workshops in Takoradi are as safe as they are fun and inspiring.

Will I receive teaching materials to use in my own classes?

While we focus heavily on the physical act of creating graffiti, we also provide you with digital resources and curriculum ideas. These cover the rich history of street art, from its NYC roots to the modern Ghanaian scene. You'll leave with a well-rounded toolkit that includes both practical painting techniques and theoretical knowledge to share with your students in any educational environment.

How long does a typical training session last?

Our standard professional development sessions in Takoradi typically last between 2 and 4 hours. This timeframe allows us to cover the 'Three Pillars': History/Safety, Technical Skills/Lettering, and Collaborative Murals. If you have a larger faculty group or specific curriculum goals, we can easily extend the session into a full-day intensive workshop to dive even deeper into the art form.

Do we need to provide the location or do you have a studio?

Flexibility is key! We can bring the workshop to your school grounds if you have a suitable outdoor wall or open space. Alternatively, we can host your team at one of our partner creative spots in Takoradi. If you're worried about the weather or space, we can even provide mobile 'graffiti walls' (cellophane or panels) that allow us to set up a professional studio anywhere.

Do I need to pay for the training in advance?

We believe in the quality of our training so much that we don't require any upfront payment. You can book your slot, get your team excited, and handle the administrative side once the workshop is complete. This reflects our commitment to 100% satisfaction—we want you to be thrilled with the professional development experience we provide before the final invoice is settled.

The experience

Why choose graffiti for your next professional development session? It’s more than just spray paint—it’s a way to connect with the next generation through a medium they actually care about. Here’s why teachers in Takoradi love our training:

🔥 High Student Engagement: Street art is a "cool" factor that gets even the most reluctant students excited about art class.
🎨 Skill Diversification: Add a completely new, modern medium to your teaching toolkit that stands out in your career portfolio.
✅ Safety First: Learn the professional way to manage aerosols, ventilation, and PPE in a school environment.
🤝 Inclusive Learning: Graffiti is a leveller—it rewards bold choices and helps students who struggle with fine-line drawing to find their voice.
💪 Professional Confidence: Leave the session ready to plan, execute, and assess a full graffiti project independently.

Local culture

Takoradi, with its bustling harbour and vibrant 'Oil City' energy, is the perfect backdrop for a street art revolution. While Takoradi is famous for its colourful Masquerade Festival (Ankos), the city's walls are starting to tell new stories through urban art. By bringing our teacher training here, we are tapping into the local tradition of bold, public celebration and translating it into the medium of aerosol spray.

Fun Fact: Did you know Takoradi is one of the few places where 'Fancy Dress' (masquerade) is a year-round passion? We love incorporating those bright, festive colour palettes into our graffiti designs to keep the local spirit alive! ✨
